World Famous Quality
By sharing many components with the Honda Accord automobile, the BF115 and BF130 gain years of proven Honda engineering and reliability. |
Programmed Electronic Fuel Injection
4 Fuel Injectors and a Common High Flow Throttle body deliver the precise amount of fuel/air to each cylinder. |
Benefit
The result is easy starts, instant throttle response with superior fuel efficiency. |
Torsion Dampener
Sometimes called a flywheel, it is located near the base of the powerhead. This design lowers the center of gravity for improved handling and hull maneuverability. |
Benefit
Improves handling and hull maneuverability. |
Top Mounted Electronics
Alternators, ignition and other critical electrical components mounted near the top of the powerhead to stay cool and dry. |
Benefit
Dependability. |
Largest Displacement Engine
At 137 cubic inches, the 115HP and 130HP have the largest displacement in those horsepower categories. The long-stroke design increases the torque output and offers the best in overall performance and efficiency. |
High Output Charging
Belt-driven to reduce heat and improve reliability. The proven system delivers 20 Amps at idle, 30 Amps at 1000 RPM and a generous 40 Amps over 2000 RPM to ensure the batteries remain charged. |
Balanced Engine
The 115HP and 130HP have twin counter-rotating balancers, which cancel out internal engine vibrations, providing smooth operation throughout the entire RPM range. |
Engine Alert System
With Honda's Engine Alert System, the ECM monitors vital engine function and prevents engine damage by alerting the operator of overheating, low oil PSI, over-rev, battery condition, and critical engine functions. |
Positive Lubrication
A crankshaft-driven, automotive-style trochoid oil pump ensures critical engine component long-term durability. |
Engine Alert System
Uses visual, audio and RPM reduction circuits to alert the operator of overheating, low oil PSI and over-revving, preventing engine damage. |
Sealed Starter
The starter motor is inverted into a sealed chamber that protects the starter bendix drive from the elements. |
Non-Linear Mounting System
Patented non-linear rubber mounts provide smoother operation at all engine speeds. |
Engine Command System
Engine Command Module receives constant input from 18 sensors located throughout the engine, then determines the correct fuel flow and ignition curve, providing optimum performance. |
Forced Air Ventilation
Unique air intake on the top of the cowl allows cooler air to enter and warmer air to escape. The ventilation system reduces under-the-hood operating temperature, improving performance and long-term durability of the electrical components. |
Corrosion Protection System
A patented, "Double Sealed" multi-layered paint process. Sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, all enhance corrosion protection. |
Fresh Water Flushport
Flushes debris and saltwater out of the engine, extending the life of the outboard. |
Easy Maintenance
Easy "screw-type" valve adjuster system requires no shims and reduces maintenance costs. Front-mounted oil filter and oil filler make for easy maintenance. |
Built-In Pilot Tube
Built-in pilot tube in the gear case eliminates the need to drill holes in your boat for installation. |
Ultra Low 3 Star Carb Emissions
Cleanest technology available. |
